This lipstick is really nice. It's a nude frost, a little too light but nonetheless, a great go-to shade. The packaging is fine, the price is only 97 cents in Wal-Mart. Its lasting power is great and doesn't smudge all over the upper lip. There's no offensive smell or taste. It does not dry or cake, honestly, it's yet another lipstick that seems like expensive, department store quality. Well-worth the purchase.

I'm one of the "older" women contributing to this website. Does anyone remember a shade from the early 1970s that everyone was wearing? It was called "Nicole" and came in durable, gold case. That's the color I was shooting for when I purchased this Cafe. Add a little pink to it and it comes pretty close.

Back to the Cafe. There's a bit of a white look to this frost but nevertheless, I think it would look good on all skin tones. I'm quite light and it looks good on me and makes my teeth look white too. It will go well if you've done up your eyes dramatically as opposed to wearing a deep red with a lot of eye-makeup (never recommended).

I like the base color-sort of a pink nude. The color looks very nice with my skin tone. However it is quite frosty, so if I put too much on I look straight out of the 80's! I put on one or two light coats, and then cover with a gloss to try and tone down the frost. This would be the perfect color for me if it wasn't frosty.

Okay, so this lipstick has been hiding in my makeup storage and I decided to get this out and give it another try. I am pleasantly surprised with how it looks on me! The packaging is cheap and the price is crazy cheap (.99 cents!) but it definitely is more of a nude color. It's also super frosty. I like this and I would buy it again.

I picked up one at walmart last night for fun since the color looks nice in the tube and the price is really low, less than one buck i believe. I tested it out immediately when i got home. i have fairly pigmented lips and my natural lip color is redish pink. this lipstick shows a bit pale on my lips and shimmering. it's a nude shade. i am ok with the color since it's dirt cheap and the quality is satisfying for the price.

i wanted to try some neutral shades of lipstick, and i saw some reviews about how this color was really neutral and pretty looking, so i decided to try it, since it was only $.97. uhhh hmm... maybe it's because i have naturally red lips or what, but it looked basically like i had just put some clear gloss on my lips : / there was almost no color to it. i was preeeetty disappointed because i was excited to see how it'd look, but i can't say i wasn't really surprised because NYC is a pretty cheap, low quality brand. so, it was worth trying because it was so cheap, but i might have well just used some of my clear lip gloss.pros: smells good and its super softanother con: you can't make the lipstick go down it the tube like other lipsticks, so every time you put the lid on or take the lid off, its really easy to accidentally band it against the lipstick or even cut the whole thing off ( guilty, i've done it once..)

Great nude shimmer! This is very comparable to Revlon's Champange on Ice, and L'Oreal's Carmel Latte, which I was shelling out almost $10 for a tube. I'll take the knock-off for .99! This is also long lasting and not overly greasy, which I like.

i love my liquid lipshine in Nude York City, so i was looking for a good nude lipstick to have under it, also from NYC.

i got mine for $0.99 at CVS (i love this brands prices!). this lipstick has a weird, plasticky fruity smell that i hate. it stays for a while too, but it goes away eventually. cafe is a pretty color that looks great under Nude York City, but by itself it is waaaaaayyyy too frosty. in direct light, my lips looked white!

i would buy this again if i had to - it's really cheap and decent when under the right lip gloss.

I was looking for a lipstick to boost my spirits up. During my lunch hour I was roaming the makeup aisle in Walmart and came across this lipstick. For .93 how could I go wrong? I picked this Cafe color and Petal (I think--the printing is so )&*( ing small) and figured--what the heck.Before I go any further though, I have to vent about a little thing that drives me nuts. You cannot open the lipstick to really get a feel of what it looks like. I know--I know it is more sanitary that way, but it would be awesome if a tester was put into place so I could have at least seen what the color REALLY looked like.Anyway, I like this. With some shiney lipbalm applied over it, the lipstick looks pretty nice. I will give props to NY Color for actually making a dirt-cheap lipstick that lasts on my mouth longer than the high-end lipstick I've been known to use. (yes, my Benefit Jing-A-Ling comes off within minutes and so does my beloved YSL. Go figure).The only complaint I have with this color is that it is just a tad too pearlized. Although I don't mind slightly pearlized, this just seems a bit more that I prefer, but that is just me.I would purchase this color again. Just as an aside, the Petal was just too pale. I'll keep it though 'cause it may come in handy applied over a color that is too dark.All in all, this is a winner by NY Color!
